Running on what used to be the westbound. |
Description: |
The depot would've been to the left of this unit and 2 tracks removed from it. Beyond the bridge in the distance is the track to PPG. Whoever was the flagman on our local would have to walk out there and protect the move as we shoved against the current of traffic on the eastbound. |
